Because I haven't done it in awhile: The Friday Five

1. Do you wear any jewelry? What kind? I wear earrings and that's about it. Diamonds in the second holes and larger flashier cubic zirconia in my first holes. I have a really swanky silver and blue fossil watch that I throw on when I need to be time conscious.

2. How often do you wear it? I wear the earrings all the time, I only take them out for kung fu when I remember to. When I forget it's a real drag. Never wrestle while wearing earrings. You're asking bent up earrings and ripped up ears.

3. Do you have any piercings? If so, where? My ears are double pierced. I went through a phase in the early nineties where I wanted to pierce other things such as belly button, nose, and nipples but chickened out (or came to my senses, pick one).

4. Do you have any tattoos? If so, where? I have a retro black kitty cat on my inside right leg by the calf. I want another one. Really really bad but I can't figure out of what and where to put it. Maybe something martial on my shoulder or back, then again I like to see my own tattoos.

5. What are your plans for the weekend?I'm still recovering from the mother of all migraine headaches so I'll probably lay low tonight by getting some dinner with Simon then watching one of the DVD's we got for Christmas: Austin Powers Goldmember or Star Wars II. Saturday morning I'll go to kung fu class, get my hair cut and maybe hit some after Christmas sales.

Books, books & more books.

Happy New Year! Welcome to 2003. Well, I brought in the New Year with a bang. A three day migraine that started Tuesday afternoon and lasted until late last night. I've got that icky medication hang over feeling but I'm glad to be alive. Want to know what a migraine feels like? Have someone slam a car door on your head about twenty times, drill small holes into the front of your skull then put your brain in a veg-a-matic and hit the "puree" button. Then lie in a dark room whimpering quietly to yourself. Make sure you take lots of medication as you'll be puking most of it up on an hourly basis. When someone comes to check on you, beg them quietly to put a bullet in your head. Did I mention I'm just getting over bronchitis? I think I've reached the point where all of my blood had been replaced with various antibodies. I should be immune to all illnesses and diseases. In fact, I think I am now immortal. Bow to me.
